Hockey
After reading this post over at A Red Mind in a Blue State
I very much agree with a lot of the ideas put forward in the post about how to enhance the game. However, I have a few disagreements, minor ones at that.
Simply put, playoff hockey is awesome. So I disagree with the notion that there are too many teams in the playoffs. More teams=more games=more action and suspense. And when the games go into OT…..oooh yeah!
Now, I do think that the NHL has made many a bad decision, and has really shot itself and the sport in the foot. Perhaps it’s the way the game is being played in the pros now?
I don’t think hockey is on its way out–rather, I think if people were exposed to more of the game on the collegiate and high school levels they’d begin to enjoy it more.
I also agree that the rules need changed, get rid of the red line!
